Summary:
The 45663 zip code area is home to a single high school, Portsmouth West High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance and demographics provide a mixed picture, with some areas of strength but also room for improvement.
Portsmouth West High School maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 92.8%, which is above the state average. However, the school's academic performance on Ohio State Tests is generally below the state average, particularly in mathematics subjects like Geometry, Integrated Math I, and Integrated Math II. The school also faces challenges with a chronic absenteeism rate of 31.2%, which is significantly higher than the state average. On the positive side, the school's spending per student of $10,042 is in line with the state average, suggesting that funding is not a major constraint on the school's ability to provide quality education.
Demographically, Portsmouth West High School has a predominantly white student population, with only 5.43% of students identifying as non-white. This lack of diversity may be reflective of the broader demographics of the 45663 zip code area. Overall, the data suggests that while Portsmouth West High School is able to support students in completing their high school education, there are opportunities to improve academic performance, particularly in mathematics, and address the high chronic absenteeism rate.
